Sony MicroVault line improved at CES 2012

[CES 2012] CES 2012 saw Sony announce an improvement in their MicroVault range, where the new models that comprise USM-Q, USM-P and USM-M will include the entire spectrum of users, ranging from those who want ultra-fast, high performance to a more modern, stylish, and easy-to-use model. After all, different strokes for different folks apply here, so there is no need for all storage devices to function the same way, according to Viviano Cantu, Director of Consumer Media for Sony Electronics.

[CES 2012] Amidst all the Smart TVs, digital cameras, camcorders and the Crystal LED Display that were paraded at the recently concluded CES, something as small as an SD memory card got lost in translation, but thankfully we managed to pick up word on this after all the dust had settled. Sony has expanded its family of SD memory cards with a new flagship series that were specially designed for ultra-high speed interface (UHS-I) compatibility, paving the way for DSLR users to experience superb speed and high performance. The new cards will come in varying capacities of 32GB (SF-32UX), 16GB (SF-16UX) and 8GB (SF-8UX).

Droid 3 now $99 at Verizon. Motorola Droid 4 could be out really soon

Verizon Wireless has dropped the price of its Motorola Droid 3 to $99.99 on contract (until recently, the handset was priced at $199.99). This probably means the carrier is really close to launching the new Motorola Droid 4, which was officially announced at the same time with the Droid Razr Maxx. Since the Razr Maxx should become available on January 26, we might see the Droid 4 hitting the shelves the same day.

Corvette ZR1-powered Chevrolet Silverado has us feeling sleepy

Corvette ZR1-powered Chevrolet Silverado has us feeling sleepy

Here we have the kind of sleeper that'll wake you up no time: a short-bed, four-wheel-drive Chevrolet Silverado with an LS9 from the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1. With dyno numbers of 510 horsepower and 504 pound-feet of torque, there's a jump of at least 205 hp and 169 lb-ft over the most powerful factory engine you can get in that truck. The result.

Nokia Lumia 900 to be launched by AT&T in March

Nokia Lumia 900 to be launched by AT&T in March

A few days ago, when Nokia announced the Lumia 900 for AT&T, it said the smartphone would be released "in the coming months.". Now, thanks to the official Nokia Developer Newsletter (see the screenshot below), we know that the new handset should be out in March. Of course, that's when AT&T will launch it in the US only, as there's still no word if or when we're going to see the Lumia 900 on other carriers / in other markets.
The Lumia 900 is Nokia's third Windows Phone Mango handset, and is pretty much a larger Lumia 800 with LTE connectivity.
